What electric Car? - Renault Twizy

Renault TwizyThe Renault Twizy is much more affordable than any other electric vehicle out there – it doesn't qualify for any Government grants, but still starts at less than £7000.

However, with just the two seats – one behind the other – it is stretching it a bit to call it a car, especially when you consider that the options list includes things that you would normally expect to be included – doors and plastic, zip-in windows for example.

The limited range, low top speed and very firm ride mean that it is not a vehicle you are likely to want to take far out of the city, but it is an entertaining and eye-catching way to get around on electric power.
